Getting a good GPA is quite within reach, but getting a 4.0 really is not. There are apparently a few people who graduate with a 4.0 after four years here, but I don’t think there is one every year. The really good students get a 3.7, while the brilliant students get a 3.8. The people who get above a 3.8 are generally the ones who go on to win things like the Goldwater prize and Rhodes scholarships.
